How to pronounce my name:
My main philosophical interests are in History and Philosophy of Science, especially in the Early Modern Period. I'm particularly interested in the way the role of metaphysics in science changed, especially after Newton's Principia. The main figures I study are George Berkeley and Emilie Du Chatelet.
